2024 Mclaren Formula 1 Team

Did both cars get the new front wing?

Piastri said in the interviews that the wing was working well.

Having watched the sprint qualification, I can confirm.

Let's see what happens today. Lando must push and not be conservative.

Is Lando sick? I don't know who mentioned it here before, but he looks unusually fatigued in the post quali interviews, and he sounds congested :

yes he's unwell. He was unwell in Barca as well. Some reports that he's gotten worse

Not surprising. Sounds viral, can often last a couple of weeks and even though Lando is insanely fit and healthy, he would still need rest. Probably the worst time to get ill is a triple header with no real time to rest in between races.

Hopefully he can make time for a couple days downtime before Silverstone. We need a Lando home victory!!

[Darth-Piekus]

It's time for Sprint. Which side does Lando start? I noticed he's on the inside line. If he manages to start faster and gets even with Max he has the upper hand to get to the first turn as Max will be forced to let him.

Norris needs to defend the inside, how is that not clear. Verstappen always does this, especially in Austria.

Oscar can't challenge Max like Lando could, I hope this doesn't ruin the race.

[Darth-Piekus]

We got to change positions. Oscar can't challenge Max still.

I think this must be it. The moment Lando didn't close the inside line it was over.

[Mcl_G10]

I think lando dropped abit deliberately. Later he will be back and Oscar will let him through imo

[Emag]

Lando ruined his own race to be honest. What the hell was that, why would you open the inside to Max, as if he doesn't know who he is.

Not enough laps left in the sprint to do anything about this result now, but at least the car had good pace and its maybe a good sign for tomorrow.

[Darth-Piekus]

Lando has to cover 2 seconds and it's 9 laps.

Let lando past oscar

Team orders are going to come out way too late.

I'm so frustrated with that. Leclerc learned that lesson the hard way in Austria. Hopefully Lando now learns that Verstappen is not his friend on track, he will divebomb and force you out if needed.

About Piastri I am completely fine with fighting but maybe they should swap positions and give opportunity to Norris to attack Verstappen, swap back if it doesn't work.

[FittingMechanics]

I guess no team orders in Sprint.

Let lando past oscar

Why should he? He got the position fair and square. It was Lando who made a mistake.
